the baker woman sells white loaves
and loaves of rye and loaves of barley and oats
the butcher’s boy sells pork scraps for stew
and chickens and plucked capons
the pedlar sells gold and alcohol and
alchemy in jars of elixir from his cart
give them all to think you’re deaf
then hear mrs kretschner ask if you want
a cup of ale
the baker woman sells white loaves
About Me
I have a day.
